Jack: Well, to the best of my memory he's red, he's got a pitchfork, and... hm...

Anyway, wow. So within the space of like two weeks there's a new Gorillaz album AND a new White Stripes album. Badass.

[Herr Matzat]

I knew Jack White was gay.

They had three albums before Elephant. I think they're all better, but maybe that's me. I liked Elephant a lot, though.

I have Elephant and White Blood Cells. I'd say Elephant's better than White Blood Cells because whilst Elephant has some songs I don't like, White Blood Cells just kind of runs out of steam after the first half. It has its moments but it also has "I Think I Smell a Rat", "Aluminium", and "This Protector." (The second half DOES have "Now Mary," though, and that's probably my favorite song off that album. That or "Hotel Yorba.")

I have never seen why this guys are considered that special...

I mean, don't get me wrong, if they came to El Paso, I would go (but I also went to a The Strokes concert when I didn't knew them) but I don't get why they are treated as the saviors of Rock music, and Elephant got 5 stars from plenty of magazines like if it was a Rolling Stones or a Led Zeppelin album...

They are a group who are good.... but I could never, EVER see as a legend group, or as a Hall of Famer.

[Herr Matzat]

they are not a group...

[Herr Matzat]

there are laws that forbit comming together in a group at certain times or places, riot prevention

[Underage Politician]

So what are they? A duo? How trivial.

[Herr Matzat]

i just noted becaus some people tend to forget that they are only two people, there are a lot of bands that make a lot less music with twice as much members

I've got Blue Orchid, it's great. More like their early stuff, which is no bad thing.

We started playing Blue Orchid yesterday. Great tune, very weird, but very White Stripes.
